His hope is (allegedly) to play in his hometown for the Texans. I will say this: If the Bengals ever play zone, just let him go. He is totally lost in zone, but I consider him a really good CB.
Hate to lose the guy, but if he doesn't want to be here are we ever going to get his best?
I'm with you. Maybe Phillips is an option. He had a nice game on Sunday. Offer him a shot at the job, sign a middling guy or draft a 3rd or 4th rounder, re-sign Alexander, then see what happens if you can't bring yourself to shell out for Jackson. The outcome here is added depth and likely a first round corner in 2022. Of course, if Phillips works out, you're playing with house money. This would be a great time to see them develop a guy like that.
